Game of Thrones Video Flashback: Queen Elizabeth Visits Set

Game of Thrones is definitely one of the biggest shows to ever be on television period, but sometimes it’s hard to believe a fictional show about the quest for the royal crown could grab the attention of true royalty but that’s exactly what happened.

As it turns out, Queen Elizabeth visited the set of the HBO series back in 2014, which probably shocked a lot of the cast. Who knew the Queen of England would care about a fictional show with women vying to be the Queen of the Seven Kingdoms?!

Watch the video above to see Queen Elizabeth visit the set in Belfast, Ireland and meet some of the cast members like Lena Headey (Cersei). She even got to check out the Iron Throne!
